TUTOR

As a Tutor working with TailorEDucation, you will play a vital role in supporting pupils to make progress in their learning, confidence and personal development.

Our tuition assignments cover children and young people from KS1 through to KS5, with opportunities supporting a diverse range of educational needs. This may include Functional Skills Maths and English, academic catch-up, targeted intervention or personalised learning support. You may also work with pupils who have SEND needs, adapting your approach to meet their individual learning needs and circumstances.

Depending on the role, you may be responsible for:

Planning and delivering engaging, structured tuition sessions

Supporting pupils to develop their Maths and English skills

Delivering Functional Skills or targeted academic intervention

Supporting pupils with SEND and additional learning needs

Building positive and trusting relationships with pupils

Monitoring progress and providing feedback on learning

Encouraging pupils to develop confidence, independence and a positive attitude towards learning

Working collaboratively with schools, families and other professionals where appropriate

Tuition may be delivered face-to-face, either within a school or an appropriate education setting, depending on the individual placement or online.

About the Setting

Our tuition opportunities can vary considerably, from supporting pupils who require additional help to catch up with their peers, through to more individualised provision for pupils with SEND or those who are currently unable to access a mainstream classroom setting.

Assignments cover KS1, KS2, KS3, KS4 and KS5, and each placement is different. We will discuss the specific requirements, setting, pupil needs and expectations with you before you start.
